List of checked boxes in Pyside?

Question

I created a gui in qtdesigner that has many checkboxes: Screenshot http://imgq.tk/img/-2012-07-13%2013:55:07.png

and I would like to know if there is a way to list all the checked boxes using pyside. It would be even better if I could just get the text from each box. The boxes are in a grid layout.

Since you're in python, you should be able to introspect on the object and find all its members. But Qt makes this easy in general because of the parent-child relationship. You can query the form (the parent) for its children that are text boxes:

# my python's a bit rusty, but hopefully this is close
checkboxes = [x for x in form.children() where isinstance(x, QCheckBox)]

See the findChildren() and children() methods.
